EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, dated 1843, showcases the beloved fictitious character Sir Roger de Coverley, a creation of Joseph Addison for The Spectator in the early 18th century. Sir Roger, depicted here in the 1840s, is seen in full Victorian regalia, complete with a top hat, tailcoat, and waistcoat. His elegant attire is contrasted by his country surroundings, as he stands in a lush, green landscape with a horse and dog at his side. The name Sir Roger de Coverley became synonymous with a popular dance, which gained popularity during the 18th century. The dance, featuring a lively and energetic rhythm, was often performed at social gatherings and balls. Sir Roger himself is said to have been an accomplished dancer, and the dance was named in his honor. The print also features a second gentleman, dressed in similar attire, who stands nearby, admiring the scene. The presence of multiple horses and dogs in the background suggests a leisurely day spent in the countryside, a pastime enjoyed by the gentry of the time. This charming print offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the early Victorian era and the world of Sir Roger de Coverley. With its rich details and intriguing story, it is a must-have for any collection focusing on the history of dance, fashion, or the social customs of the 18th and 19th centuries.
